In the course of its 40-plus year history, the Congregation has of course lost many members and relatives of members. Each loss is felt personally as longtime members especially feel part of an extended Congregational family. A funeral service is prepared by the family with the assistance of member/friends and is usually conducted by a member.
A complete service is offered here for use "as is" or modified to reflect the wishes of the family.

Most Jewish members who have lost a close relative observe shiva at their homes for one or more days when friends and relatives visit. Here is a CHJ Shiva service to download.
